    Falling Still
    (2005) Sedgwick, Daniel; Stallmann, Kurt
    This piece explores combinations of different types of linearly developing patterns. These patterns are of three main varieties: first, strictly linear patterns; second, linear patterns with free surface variation; and third, patterns which develop linearly in two opposing directions, either simultaneously or in alternation. These patterns are applied to the musical parameters of phrase length, pitch, register, dynamics, density, and timbre (the piano timbre is gradually transformed through the use of live electronic processing). As these simple patterns combine, the surface texture becomes complex and unpredictable, yet the clarity of the individual linear progressions provides an underlying direction at all times.

    Theme and Variations for String Quartet
    (2009) Sedgwick, Daniel; Al-Zand, Karim
    This piece contains a theme and nine variations exploring a chromatic harmonic pattern. The variations range from gentle and whimsical to stark and serious to wild and virtuosic, all within a world of romantic, futuristic idealism inspired by the music of Olivier Messiaen, Ben Johnston, Kelley Polar, and Morgan Geist. An important concern in the composition of this piece was flexibility in its tuning possibilities---the quartet may be performed in either twelve-tone equal temperament or strict five-limit just intonation, or an intuitive compromise between the two.
